Answer:

 

Urinate standing

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

 

Under usual circumstances, it is the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (saws) that he would always urinate in a sitting position; but on some occasions, especially if there was fear that some impurity would touch him if he urinated in a sitting position, it is reported that he (saws) urinated in a standing position. Thus, although it is highly recommended and desirable to always urinate in a sitting position; if one fears impurity at a public toilet, etc., there is no harm if one urinates while standing.

 

Hudhaifah relates that the Messenger of Allah (saws), went to a public garbage dump and urinated while standing. Hudhaifah went away, and the Prophet (saws) then called him over. The Prophet (saws) made ablution, and wiped over his shoes.

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me alone. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

 

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,

 

 

Burhan
